LL Course 4+5: Pandas Essential Training (2 hours, 14 minutes)
Pandas is a Python library used for data manipulation and analysis. It provides data structures like DataFrames (2D tables) and Series (1D arrays) that make it easy to handle and process structured data, such as spreadsheets or databases.
Pandas is helpful because it allows for:
Data cleaning and transformation: Handling missing values, filtering, sorting, and grouping.
Efficient data analysis: Summarizing, merging, and reshaping large datasets.
Easy integration with other Python libraries for data science and machine learning.
